the power steering tank is by NRG, but it may have been discontinued so they're hard to track down. the coolant overflow is by weapon-r and the catch can is by circuit sports (the bimmer guys run an identical catch can by riss racing). i used some earl's hose clamps to connect the catch can, but had to fabricate the nipples since they are not a standard thread pitch

Randy (caskyline) did a mini wire tuck (that helped a lot)... I disconnected/removed as much as possible off the engine. Body shop bagged/masked and prepped for paint.
